Manholes in Berkeley will now be called 'maintenance holes'

Eliminating the gendered connotations of words like "manhole" in the city municipal code.

No longer will the streets of fair Berkeley be dotted with manholes, nary a womanhole or nonbinaryhole in sight. With Tuesday night's vote, they have all been transmuted into "maintenance holes," that highest, hardest glass manhole-cover finally shattered.

The ordinance eliminates all gendered pronouns from the city code, replacing "she" and "he" with "they."

"Manpower" will be referred to as "human effort," and "man-made" objects will be described with terms like "human-made," "artificial," "manufactured," "machine made" or "synthetic."

California Newspeak:

To meet the ideological requirements of California Socialism (Calsoc), the Democratic Party created Newspeak, a controlled language of restricted grammar and limited vocabulary, meant to limit freedom of thought, personal identity, self-expression, free will ? that threatens the ideology of the r?gime, who have criminalized such concepts into thoughtcrime, as contradictions of Calsoc orthodoxy.
 
These are the future isles of American gentiles, divided in their lands, every one after his tongue.

Scarlett Johansson defends casting: 'I should be allowed to play any person, tree or animal'

"I recognize that in reality, there is a wide spread discrepancy amongst my industry that favors Caucasian, cis gendered actors and that not every actor has been given the same opportunities that I have been privileged to. I continue to support, and always have, diversity in every industry and will continue to fight for projects where everyone is included."

There's two ways to look at it.  The first is that an actor or actress's job is to pretend that he/she is someone else, thus even if a white person has to wear dark makeup and act in role of a black person, that's just part of the job.

The other view is that the actor or actress is not only portraying, but also representing the character.  Therefore to be faithful to the character, you should hire a black person to portray a black character.

Not sure about hiring Scarlet Johansoon to play a tree though.  Wouldn't you just...  use a tree?
